Bad Lands.
HY Ions LEASH.
Poor bird Of the mountain, how sad is thy fate,
Low %crouchcd meath yon seer ~lcaflcss tree;
How bleak is thy home, no kindfricnd or mate
To comfort and watch over thee.
The wintry winds howl 'mong the mountain tops
high,
The prairics are dismal and drcar;
Each black suth'ring cloud swccpsin haste thwart
thy sky.
And lightly skins gloomy Kildecr.
The Coyotes howl on the black dreary waste,
The Antelope swift skims the plain;
The fleet antlcrcd buck to the brush bounds in
haste.
And slyly the fox seeks his DIN.
Iut alas. gentle bird. no home hast thou here.
To shelter thy fast dropping head;
No lovin.on hoN'ring around thee TO cheer
Thy lonesome and cold dying bed.
Thy tribe have all left thee, they know thee no
more.
They heed not thy v:sagc downcast,
l'ut soon shall Thy sorrows and troubles he DER,
Tho'ur, wounded and lifc's cbbins fast.
How like gentle bird is thy nov hopeless state,
Alas. to humanity poor;
For friendship dccp-roo,ci will seldom await,
When poverty drives at our door.
